LSU linebacker Patrick Queen did not hold back when asked about the Sooners’ offense.
“[The] O-line’s not great, running backs aren’t great but they still make it work,” Queen told reporters at Thursday’s Peach Bowl media days.
Queen said that the Tigers’ goal is to get the ball out of Hurts’ hands and force others to make plays.
“Jalen Hurts is a great quarterback,” Queen said.
“I feel like our defense will make plays in space. I feel like with this gameplan we got we’re gonna dominate them, I feel very confident in what we got.”
LSU is No. 32 in total defense while Oklahoma is No. 25. Both the Tigers and Sooners have the two most lethal offenses in the country as No. 1 and No. 2 in the country, respectively.
The Sooners “make it work” by putting up two fewer yards than LSU (7,205) on 41 fewer plays (884) for an average of 8.15 yards per play and average 554.4 yards per game, just two-tenths of a yard less than the Tigers.
Oklahoma and LSU kickoff Saturday, Dec. 28 at 3p.m. CT on ESPN.
